1.
What to
submit?
The submission
process for the art program
conference track is different
from the submission process for the art program exhibition.
Papers
submitted to the art program
conference track may be long (10 pages) or
short (2 to 4 pages). Long papers are presented in front of
an audience and short papers are presented in poster format. After
the review process is complete, the organizers may ask an author who
submitted a long paper to submit a short paper instead or vice
versa.
Art
exhibition submissions should
consist of a one to two page
publishable statement that includes
artistic motivation, project description, and technical details. A
project information sheet stating stage of completion of the work
and installation requirements, as well as supporting materials
should be included (web-links and copies of CDs/DVDs only if on-line
submission is not possible). Do not send original materials.
Specific submission details will be posted on the exhibition page.
All papers must be
submitted using the ACM template. Please check back the submissions
page for detailed information on the format of the papers (for the
conference and exhibition).
2.
Which track
to submit to? What is the selection process?
Art Program Conference Track: papers submitted to
this track will be reviewed by a Technical Program Committee and
judged by the same standards as regular ACM Multimedia submissions.
The emphasis will be on novel technical contribution, and the use of
multimedia technology to develop artistic concepts. There are no theme restrictions for this
track.
Exhibition: papers will be
reviewed by the Technical Committee for technical correctness and
quality. They will also be judged by the Exhibition Curatorial
Committee. The selection criteria will be artistic merit, and
alignment with the theme of the exhibition. Works that are unrelated to the theme
will not be selected for the exhibition. The project
statement will be published in the conference proceedings, and
therefore the quality of the paper, and not just the quality of the
art work, will have an impact on the
selection.
3.
What is the
double submission policy?
Papers submitted to the
art program conference
track
must not be under review elsewhere and must not have been previously
published. By submitting, authors acknowledge that no paper of
substantially similar content has been published or will be
submitted to another conference or workshop during the ACM MM review
period.
Art
works
submitted to the exhibition may have been
exhibited elsewhere. However, the publishable statement (one to two page
paper)
must adhere to the double submission guidelines above.
4.
Publication
All papers
describing work selected will be part of the conference and will
therefore be published in the ACM Multimedia Conference proceedings.
This includes long and short papers as well as papers describing
works selected for the exhibition. Authors are responsible for
obtaining all of the necessary permissions to publish their works.
5.
Registration
requirements
Authors whose works
are accepted in the conference track must register and attend the
conference. Artists whose work
is selected for the art exhibition are highly encouraged, but
not
required to register and
attend the conference. Artists, however, are fully responsible for
installation, delivery, and return of artworks. Anyone who attends
the conference must register. The exhibition, however, will be open
to the public (no registration needed). |
